A general overwiew of Butler Yard in Milwaukee during the summer of 1995 looking north from Hampton Ave. Power from a northbound is lined back onto Main 2 to head into the yard, as WC power lays over on the right.

“These cliff dwellings were built and occupied by the Anasazi Indians approximately 700 years ago. This ruin reflects the full range of living activities: habitation, ceremonial, farming, hunting, storage, and tool making. It contains four kivas, underground chambers where ceremonial activities took place. Three of the kivas are of the round Mesa Verde type most common in this area. The fourth kiva is a square type more commonly found in ruins to the south in Arizona. This indicates that the Anasazi here at Butler Wash were dominated by the Mesa Verde culture to the east and influenced less by the Kayenta culture to the south. Likewise, the ceramics found during stabilization indicate a pure Mesa Verde occupation during the 1200’s AD.
The kivas at this site are located toward the front of the largest cave, while habitation and storage rooms are visible behind them and in various caves and niches around the canyon.
The people who lived here farmed and hunted. Corn, beans, and squash were grown in the deep alluvial soils of the broad canyon to the south. A cycle of deep arroyo cutting may have made agriculture impossible by lowering the ground water level and making irrigation unfeasible. The current deep wash is a result of an erosion cycle which started in the 1890’s.
Whatever the reason – drought, overuse of natural resources, or waring neighbors – this site was abandoned before 1300 AD.” (US Bureau of Land Management)
This was not an easy panel to reach. It's usually visited by floating down the San Juan River and stopping along the way. Not having a boat, I drove down a very long way around, through Comb Wash, following a mostly nonexistent "road" for quite a few miles. At times the water in the wash was quite deep. There was a lot of mud, too. I was a bit worried, since I was solo and there was nothing to winch off of if I had become stuck.
Down along the river I came upon a group of people who were camped. They had floated the river, but were not aware of the nearby rock art. I remember, very clearly, their faces as I drove up - eyes wide and mouthes open. They were astounded that I had driven in. Someone once described me as tenacious. I guess I am.
Anyway, enjoy the rock art. I'll be posting a few from the very extensive panel.

I'm always finding different angles of the skyline. I wanted to go by the lake, but I wasn't sure if it was open. It was gated off.
Thought this would be a cool angle.

Mid-January saw another run down to Iowa so the kid was there for the start of 2nd semester. It was frigid, windy, and snowless at Butler but a brilliant sunny day meant no complaints from me. As has become common practice for my visits, BUWA was working the south end of the yard putting their train together. Some clutter in this shot but I was happy to get one of the ex-CN Geeps on the point. Iowa Northern had a neat roster and these are some of my favorites, with the intact class lights and how well they wear the old Iron Roads paint scheme. January 18, 2025.

On December 3, 1990, Chicago and North Western’s PRGBA (Proviso Yard to Green Bay freight) has finished making a setout at Butler Yard. Snow is coming down hard, and is starting to cover the rails. An eastbound (southbound) military extra with a GP40 on the point has come to a stop at the reversed switch on the crossover. The crew of yard engine GP7 No. 4105 has also come over to help the crew of PRGBA clean out the switch. Soon, both trains will be on there way, and the switcher will go back to work shuffling cars in the yard. In the middle of a Wisconsin blizzard, railroading doesn’t stop for the weather.
There are three Dairy Queen stand-style locations and one Dairy Queen Grill & Chill in Butler. This one was closed for the season when I took these pictures. Two of the stand locations look like they date from the 1950s. The third stand location is a more typical one with a red mansard roof.

A Chicago and North Western train led by SD45 No. 946 waits for a new crew on the westbound main, as two other trains make setouts/pickups at Butler Yard at Butler, Wisconsin, in September 1984. Lots of trains to see, a GP7 yard switcher with a 567 whining away bumping cars on the far ladder, a full caboose track, and flowers are planted around the yard office flag pole. All is right in the world on this late summer day… at least for this young train watcher.
The second of the two vintage (1950s era) still operational Dairy Queen stands in Butler... The other stand looks very similar (www.flickr.com/photos/fanofretail/27217223742/)
